EDITORS COMMENTS
Monday Night at Eight: A Delightful Scene from the WW2 Era This charming comic postcard, dated 1945, captures the essence of a light-hearted moment during the wartime years. Despite the end of the Second World War, coal rationing continued, making it unlikely for a fire to be lit. Yet, the caption "Monday Night at Eight" refers to a regular entertainment show broadcast by the BBC Home Service, which brought joy and distraction to families across the UK. The image, published by Raphael Tuck and drawn by an unknown artist, depicts a sweet scene of children gathered around a darkened fireside. A little girl, with rosy cheeks and a determined expression, removes the shoes of two boys, preparing to settle in for the evening's program. A faithful dog looks on, adding to the warm and inviting atmosphere. The caricatured children, with their exaggerated features and expressive bodies, exude innocence and amusement. Their excitement for the weekly show is palpable, a testament to the power of entertainment to bring people together, even during the most challenging of times. This postcard, with its delightful blend of wartime humour and heartwarming imagery, serves as a reminder of the resilience and spirit of the British people during the WW2 era.
